Atomic Tacos — Restaurant in Kalispell

Sorry, its a little long but i have to share that it was the most bizarre experience I've ever had in a restaurant. Ordered an atomic burrito. When I got the burrito I found no guacamole. I was really polite about it and quietly mentioned to the girl working behind the counter and she acted completely shocked. Was literally loud and theatrical about it 🚩 Told me to check again and move things around🚩So, I did. I even showed her and she pointed to a speck of light green sauce, which is what I though was the avocado creama sauce that's also listed as one of the ingredients. She kept saying how weird it was that there was no guacamole in it🚩Keep in mind I wasn't rude, loud or upset. I know mistakes happen, it's my first time there so I'm definitely not trying to cause issues or have someone spit in my food. Three times she said she'd get me a small side of guacamole to throw in but she never followed through🚩 Then she said she'd have to charge me 5 dollars for a large side of guacamole🚩 I quietly reminded her the menu lists guacamole as included inside the burrito. So she takes my dissected, and now cold burrito to the back to show the chefs. They look at me through the window and say, "That's how it comes. We mix the guacamole with the avocado creama for the burritos". She handed it back to me and that was it🚩 I'm telling you.. it was so weird. I get people like to put their own twists on mexican food but she could've just said from the beginning that there's not actually traditional "guacamole" in the burrito. She didn't have to act all shocked as if I was lying and be all loud about it. I wish I was more of a boss to stand up for myself in these kinds of situations, but I don't like bringing negative attention to myself or others around me. The people I was with felt terrible about how I had been treated and I had to beg them not to say anything on my behalf. Will I go back? Yes. Everyone deserves a second chance. Will I order the burrito again? No. I heard the tacos are good and will try those. If they mess up the order, I won't say anything and chalk it up as my mistake for going back. I'll update this review after my second experience. I'll include...

Have yet to have a bad taco from here! All the tacos are well balanced between the toppings and the protein. It's very rare for a place to execute every protein on the menu to such a high level. Whether it's pork,beef,chicken, shrimp, or fish, you can count on it being tender and flavourful. Each taco is very unique and has its own flavor profile, which again is hard for a place to do. Another thing that this place does well is the dips. The queso, salsa, and guacamole are all good additions to whatever taco you choose, but the queso in specific is next level I can't think of a place with a better queso definitely not one in the valley. Given this being a review, I tried to think of negatives, and it was difficult to find any. However, there are some places that could use some improvement, and one is the chicken sandwich. I found it hard to criticize this because, I mean, after all, you're at atomic tacos, not atomic chicken sandwiches. At the same time, if it's on the menu, I think the quality of the chicken could be improved, like just putting the same chicken that's on the tacos on the sandwich and getting away from the chewy tasteless patties. Again, however, the chicken sandwich is not the focus point, and everything else on the menu is executed to a high level. Another area to improve is the chips,but it's a little nit-picky. Sometimes, the chips have a weird, almost overcooked texture. This, however, is what gives food trucks their charm it's not like fast food or chain restaurants where everything is perfect and lacks uniqueness. Each bite of food at this truck is incredible. This place is definitely a must try. Also, for the price, it's great no different than getting a 10 dollar sandwich from a chain. Actually, there is a big difference in the food here, which is way better...

Had some positive things to say, but I had to delete after the owner just accused me of chewing the meat and spitting it back out onto the taco. What a moron, anyone can see I had to spit the gristle out, but it was on the piece of paper not back in the taco. How about an apology for patronizing your place with friends and being totally served that garbage. I don't have to try and destroy your business you won't be there long. You don't have the attitude or temperament to make it in this field trust me. Having lived in Southern California for 17 years, consuming tacos with the dedication of a true aficionado (three times a week, folks!), I approached this place with high hopes and an empty stomach. Oh boy. Imagine taking a bite out of a dry, flavorless rubber band filled with gristle. Every other chomp was like hitting a meaty speed bump. And for nearly $5 a taco? I could've gotten better at a gas station. But wait, there's more! The cherry on top of this disaster taco sundae was their sauce policy. They insist on slathering their house red sauce on the tacos and refuse to add the green guac sauce, even if you offer them your firstborn child. Their reasoning? "We make the taco our way, not the way the customer likes it." Oh, really? Well, I don't like my tacos tasting like disappointment, but here we are. If Bobby Flay were making these, they might at least taste good, but this place couldn't taco its way out of a paper bag. Clearly, this joint has no clue how to craft the perfect taco. A taco...
